How Does Digital Printing on Crepe Work?
Using a sublimation printing process, the environmentally friendly printing inks are directly locked into the fibres of the fabric using heat. This results in a permanent print that won’t scratch away or fade over time, and has beautifully vibrant colours with an even and consistent tone. The bright white base tones means all colours will pop, but particularly brighter colours with bold graphics and shapes. Details of your design will be printed sharply and precisely. The solid construct of the fabrics also means that any design is suitable, with no limitations to your creativity. Patterns can be slightly disrupted when the fabric is stretched, more so on the weft, but the recovery is perfect. The matt finishes of the crepe fabrics gives your design the perfect finish for a striking look.
You have four finishing options for your new crepe material:
- Finished as it comes, with your image roughly cut around – possibly with a white border.
- Hemmed with thread, in either white or black – your fabric will be hemmed for you, please add 2 days to the production time.
- Cut on the line, where we carefully cut around the edge of your image.
How to Care for Your Customised Crepe
Crepe is surprisingly sturdy, despite its delicate finish. To make the most out of your new fabric, make sure to wash it no higher than 30 degrees, and only tumble try on a maximum setting of medium. If you follow the care instructions, your crepe fabric should remain soft, colourful and happy.
What Can I Make with My Crepe Fabric?
Personalised Crepe material has a huge range of possibilities, particularly with fashion products. Crepe de Chine has a sophisticated and chic finish, making it ideal for delicate lingerie or even everyday essentials like scarves and camisoles. This fabric does have a taught finish but looks gorgeous. Our Stretch Crepe is incredibly versatile, and alongside our Crepe Jersey is perfect for shirts, dresses, blouses, scarves and more. To create compression clothing or figure hugging dresses and skirts our Lycra Crepe couldn’t be better – the double layered knit is a heavyweight but comfortable fabric.
